Ques

What is the syllabus for the entrance for an M.Sc in zoology at HPU Shimla?

● Top Answer By Anubhav Bhardwaj on 21 Oct 21

Ans
I have a few friends from HPU Shimla and according to them, there is no specific syllabus for Zoology entrance. The question of the last few years can be helpful in analyzing the paper pattern. There is no specific syllabus mentioned but the courses generally comprise the topics from the UG degree. So it is definitely recommended to study the UG books and it would be really helpful if you could get previous papers. There are some books that can be useful such as Arihant’s entrance test book for MSc.

Which one is the best GNDU Amritsar or HPU UIIT Shimla?

● Top Answer By Santanu Mukherjee on 21 Oct 21

Ans
It entirely depends on which course you are opting for. Generally, in comparison, GNDU Amritsar will have the upper hand over HPU UIIT Shimla on the basis of the institute level and the infrastructure.  GNDU Amritsar has very good infrastructure and facilities. The environment of the institute is very good and well for studies. The seniors present there are helpful too. GNDU Amritsar has also got a huge library which the students can access anytime.

Ques

How does it feel to study in HPU Shimla and what is the extent of cooperation from the faculty?

● Top Answer By Anita Pandey on 08 Oct 21

Ans
One of my friends graduated from Kurukshetra University and is now doing her PG from HPU campus. Here are some snippets of her experience.  The quality of education at the institute is not good. It has been continuing with the same curriculum for ages. The faculty of the university do not seem to have any intentions of updating with the world while they are very active in the politics of the college. Infrastructure wise nothing has changed for many years. The library facility is not good. The location is just great and the transportation as well. The university management has not been able to fully utilize the potential of the location. The fees are very meager there (reason for the very poor students coming there of different quotas and categories who cannot afford more). There are no facilities for sports. No proper grounds or coaches. The University Institute of Engineering and Technology on the campus has a good name though.

Ques

Which one is best for an MCA HPU Shimla or Chandigarh University?

● Top Answer By Aditi Sharma on 22 Mar 23

Ans
Himachal Pradesh University (HPU) is a well-renowned government university that offers quality education to students. However, when it comes to placements, there have been instances where the university has not performed as well as expected. It's important to note that placement outcomes are not solely dependent on the university, but also on other factors such as location, curriculum, alumni network, and industry relations. On the other hand, if you choose to enroll in Chandigarh University, you can expect to be offered more industry-oriented and up-to-date courses that can increase your chances of getting a good placement. You will also have access to a dedicated placement cell that will assist you in finding job opportunities. It's important to note that there may be competition from Computer Science Engineering (CSE) students during placements, but if you have the required skills and knowledge, you can certainly succeed. There are many successful MCA graduates from Chandigarh University who have secured good placements in reputed companies. If you are looking to secure a bright future, opting for CU may be a good choice for you. It's important to thoroughly research and consider all the factors before making a decision.

Ques

Should I take an M.Sc in chemistry admission from HPU or Chandigarh University?

● Top Answer By Monideepa Chowdhury on 28 Jul 22

Ans
You should choose Chandigarh University for an M.Sc in Chemistry.  The department has state-of-the-art laboratories to perform practicals for Physical, Organic, and Inorganic Chemistry.  CU used teaching aids such as PPTs, Models, Animated Videos, Charts, etc.  Many activities are organized throughout the academic year to encourage learning outside the classroom. The faculty pool for Chemistry is excellent. CU encourages students to publish research papers during their last semester.  In terms of academics, learning resources, and facilities, CU will be better than HPU.
